Document Management implementation question

Vantage is running fairly good on SQL. There has been issues with
using a sql server though. We have found 3 unique bugs( time zone
offset doesn't work for data collection, line items are doubled when
you convert a quote to a order, price locks don't work under certain
conditions) that caused by a sql backend. Currently Vantage
developers are working on them to release in a new patch(at least im
told that). Performance-wise it is good now, but i believe some areas
will be hampered in the future do to that fact that this will be our
main erp, as they are stearing away from some funtionality that the
as400 could handle better.
We currently have about 118 users and the numbers grow as we carry
out the implementation to other shops within the US. By the end of
the north america implementation we should have Vantage running on 3
servers.

Hello everyone. I'm new to this board and relatively new to Vantage.
I was wondering if anyone has the document management function
implemented within Vantage? Do you use the AutoVue which Vantage
suggests?
We are currently running Vantage on a SQL backend, and accessed
through Citrix Nfuse environment. I'm trying to draw up some ideas on
how this will work. The licensing fee's to place ms office products
on the server could get hefty, so I was wondering if AutoVue would be
a more feasible route to go.


Thanks in advance,
Brandon

If you need ms office capability without the cost, might want to check
out OpenOffice (www.openoffice.org). It is an open source program that
is compatible with Word, Excel and PowerPoint. I typically use it to
convert documents to PDF (built in PDF generator) and fix Excel
documents (for some reason it can read some spreadsheets that Excel
can't). There are a few quirks with it but for free there is a lot of
functionality.

Hello everyone. I'm new to this board and relatively new to Vantage.
I was wondering if anyone has the document management function
implemented within Vantage? Do you use the AutoVue which Vantage
suggests?
We are currently running Vantage on a SQL backend, and accessed
through Citrix Nfuse environment. I'm trying to draw up some ideas on
how this will work. The licensing fee's to place ms office products
on the server could get hefty, so I was wondering if AutoVue would be
a more feasible route to go.


Thanks in advance,
Brandon

You should check the Autoview Lic. It required that you have a seat for any user who connects to the server. Given that the price of Autview is more then office, you could be in worse shape. If you do go with Autoview, you should check the pricing from other companies. Epicor gives us a great discount but then you pay annual maint on it.

How is vantage running for you on SQL Server? How is the performance? How many users do you have?

We use Autovue but mainly just for the CAD type files and install only on selected engineering PCs..

There are free "viewers" for Word and Excel documents downloadble from MS that use the same file type associations as the regular programs and allows people to view but not change documents. We use WordViewer extensively for ISO doc viewing. If non-editor people need to only view cad drawings we print to PDF and they use Acrobat Reader (also free).
